The Taproot Foundation strengthens local nonprofits by engaging business professionals in service.

Description and/or History:
The Taproot Foundation serves nonprofit organizations and business professionals who seek to make a meaningful impact in their community.

Local Nonprofits:
We provide Service Grants to local nonprofits that do not have a direct religious or political affiliation. We select these organizations based on their impact on the community and the value of the grant to their success.

Business Professionals:
We make it easy for skilled professionals to donate their services while gaining valuable exposure to the nonprofit community. We select volunteers based on the skills they possess, their ability to add value and their commitment to effecting change.

The Taproot Foundation, launched in 2001, is redefining volunteering by combining the efficiencies of traditional volunteer matching services with the quality management practices of leading business consulting firms. The result is the ability to assign volunteers to the most appropriate projects based on their skills and to ensure the timely delivery of quality professional services.
